Demonstrate Accidental Impact

Been a while since we had a good scare!
What happens here
As a person attempts to step up and enter the van from outside, they fail to perceive the red vertical pole positioned directly in their path. Their head makes direct, audible contact with the pole, resulting in a sudden 'bonk' sound. This impact is a direct consequence of the pole's placement intersecting the normal ingress path and the critical absence of effective visual cues that would draw immediate attention to it as an overhead obstruction. The individual's body language immediately after the impact, including a startled reaction and quick retraction, clearly suggests surprise and a momentary jolt, reinforcing the 'unexpected' nature of the hazard. The incident occurs despite the person potentially being familiar with the space, emphasizing that even in known environments, unmarked hazards can lead to preventable accidents.
Goal: A person attempts to enter the van without noticing the red vertical pole, leading to an immediate and unexpected collision, serving as a clear illustration of an occupational hazard due to lack of visual cues.
